It’s officially Valentine’s week! Whether you’ve been looking forward to it or dreading it, it’s here. I’ve been working on something that I hope you will enjoy later in the week. As a hint, let’s just say that I’ll be sharing a love story with you. It just happens to be a very personal one.
In the meantime, I thought it would be fun to talk about movies. Whether you have a special someone in your life or not, movies can be a great option for Valentine’s Day.
If you have a significant other, you can opt to stay in for an at-home date night and pick a good romantic comedy. Kev is typically not interested in gushy movies, but he can usually stomach a romantic comedy. It’s almost like the best of both worlds because I get a touch of romance and we both enjoy some good laughs. Here is a list of our favorites. We own some of them and watch them when we can’t agree on a movie. 🙂
While it might be a bit extreme, any young woman can probably relate to the absurdity of bridesmaid dresses that “can be worn again.” This is a cute and upbeat movie, but also addresses the downside to being a people-pleaser.
This is another gem that will satisfy your craving for all things 80’s. From the funny music and hair to the funny old lady who pays Adam Sandler’s character with meatballs, you will laugh your way through this one.
This might classify as a Christmas movie to some, but it can be enjoyed all year round. Kate Winslet and Jack Black are a hoot and you will find yourself rooting for the underdogs to find the love they deserve.
This movie pulls at my heart strings so much, but it is also filled to brim with some great comedy. Jim Belushi and Bonnie Hunt’s characters are hysterically funny and the relationship between the four old men are what I hope for Kev to experience with his buddies someday.
Betty White…need I say more? Her character makes this movie and proves that a grandmother will milk her age/status to get whatever she wants. Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock’s characters can hold their own too.
